Alex Whiteley is ready, mic in-hand on the football fields at SCAT (Shrewsbury College of Arts and Technology) on London Road. This mission today is to speak to coaches, parents and players about the world of coaching, girls football and the positive impact it can have.
Alex speaks to coaches Adam, Jess and Marv about the roles that they play at Shrewsbury Up and Comers u11 Girls. Women’s football is on the rise and rise at the moment which is pretty awesome. But to solidify the fantastic work led by the iconic success of the Lionesses, it is important to build a solid foundation for the next generation of women footballers. That is what Marv, Adam and Jess are doing here (amongst many fantastic coaches across the country too).
Alex speaks to some of the parents to find out the positive impact of their children being part of a team, as well as the encouragement of being coached regularly.
Finally and most importantly, Alex spoke to some of the girls about their experiences at the team. Believe me when I say, these girls blew my mind. Some of the answers and comments that they gave had the maturity and wisdom that will take them far in life – AL
If you have a young one that you’d like to bring along to training or if you’d like to help out with a bit of coaching, please email Marv at girlsdevelopment.upandcomersfc@gmail.com
